Maximilien Brice View of AMS cleaning room and arrival of the new magnet CERN Bulletin Issue: 21/2010 & 22/2010, Mon 24 May 2010 AMS Bulletin 2010 2010 AMS stands for “Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer”. It is a particle-physics detector that looks for dark matter, antimatter and missing matter from a module attached to the outside of the International Space Station. It also performs precision measurements of cosmic rays.

This robust and mature technology is used to store the complete LHC data set, from which a fraction of the data is copied to overlying disk caches for fast and widespread access. The handling of the magnetic tape cartridges is now fully automated, as they are racked in vaults where they are moved between the storage shelves and the tape drives by robotic arms.
